It was a wonderful stay. The cabin is by itself & pretty private which we really liked. It could have had a few more pans and cooking utensils but we made due. The bed seems to be lower on the headboard end again we made due. Excellent place to stay.

Lost Cave Cottage had all we needed for a cormfortable stay. The location is great. Nearby activities we engoyed are: Mt Rushmore, Crazy Hourse, Jewl Cave, Devils Tower, Hells Canyon hike, driving Needles highway and Iron Road, hiking at Badlands and the Spire trail. There is so much more to see here I will stay here again on my return trip.

We stayed in the cabin from 7/25 to 7/28/24. The cabin is very cozyand well maintained. Nice to come back to a quiet place, after a day of seeing all the sites in the area. We never had to contact or meet Barbara the manager. We enjoyed our stay and would stay here again.

Our family stayed here for vacation and it was probably the best stay we’ve had anywhere while traveling! The cottage was clean, amenities were amazing and the beds were comfy. Not to mention the amazing views & wildlife! The location was off the beaten path but still only minutes from Keystone, Rapid City and all the other attractions and parks. We are already planning our next stay - hopefully next year! We highly recommend Lost Cave Cottage!
